The earth shook with the news. He is not here; He is risen! And in that moment, joy replaced despair, hope pushed past fear, and life conquered death not just that day, but for eternity. We celebrate the resurrection of Christ for what it meant then and what it means for us every day a sacrifice that brings forgiveness, renewal, and peace to any of us who put our faith in Jesus.
No matter where we are or what burdens we might be carrying, we have reason to give thanks and praise for the unmatched love of our Savior. As we celebrate, I hope we’ll embrace the fullness of resurrection as expressed in God’s Word. You might consider reading The Story of Easter, listen to the Resurrection story in John 20 with your family, or simply re-read your favorite passage to refresh your faith.
As we celebrate the blessings of Easter, may we experience a rebirth and renewal that courses through our hearts and minds, spilling over into our lives and our communities throughout the year. He is risen indeed.
